Summary	0006618: Submodules should be included into "make dist" tar archives.
Description	From a private conversation, that is a viable solution for the problem: How about putting something like git-archive-all [1] into our build-common.git? It's one Python file, and we can call it from "make dist". It's basically meant to be a variant of "git archive" that also takes care of submodules. [1] https://github.com/Kentzo/git-archive-all

MS 2020-10-05 17:23 reporter ~0016997	git-archive-all got versioned into build-common.git, and should be invoked by all the Makefiles that need such a functionality.
